Our Interfaces and the PCAN-View work on CAN - and you see the CAN Traffic of your CAR...thats it.
You also could connect to a Digger, a Coffee machine, a medical Analyzer, a Truck, a Boat, a Plane....
and you also will see the CAN Date of these machines / vehicles...
If you want to get the detailed Information what is INSIDE the CAN Data, you need to contact the CAR manufacturer - they have a Database where you find the Info which Data is which Signal.
Maybe you are looking for a standarized High Layer Protocol like OBD-II - but then you need to use the OBD-II Viewer, not PCAN.-View (which is CAN Layer 2 - RAW Frames - no protocol on Top)

I think his car is fitted with a gateway, so he won't see much on the OBD connector.

@ScottTorres, car makers are smarter now. Try to connect at a location for hscan direct access.
